Bad iBook Mobos Replaced for Free
Apple is replacing all of the defective logic boards people are complaining about. Mine was made during the time covered by the FAQ and had the same symptoms described.
It didn't cost me any money to fix the problem because it was still under warrantee but it did cost me 5 weeks without a notebook during school, when I needed it most. Admittedly though a notebook at school, even for a software engineering student, was a luxury. I learned to love the sunlight again. :)
Anyway, kudos to Apple for doing the right thing in this situation. I was hesitant about buying another Apple computer after this happened but now I'll have no qualms getting a G5 Powerbook in 2005.
